<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi,<br>
<br>
I think you count with several tools to "clean-up" the calling
list. You could use call progress detection to detect if the
number is active. Also, you could use answer machine detection to
verify if a real person is at the other end. Even you could use
ASR and TTS in a script to get some interaction from the called
person. However, you could never get sorted all cases, for
example, the number could be a good one but belong to another
person or it belong to the main number of a company.<br>
<br>
FS give some tools. I quite sure you can do some tone detection
(busy, no answer, sit, reorder, disconnect, etc) , take a look at:<br>

About answer machine detection, I not sure how good is FS. Take a
look to:<br>

<br>
You could combine a third party tool to make the work, check this

I hope this helps you<br>

Ken Rice has some experience in this area and I'd definitely like
to hear it. If anyone else has thoughts I'd like to hear them as

P.S. - Why does the customer think that calling the number and
playing a short message will take too long? Also, what is the
customer's primary concern about the web leads having non-working
numbers? Is it because they have humans manually dialing them and
it's a waste of time when the person comes across a bad number?<br>

calling it, is there any way with FS (or even a paid
